As the title announces, physical attending finally returned in May to RL if only with one occurrence in the form of Salford Red Devils v Wigan Warriors at the AJ Bell Stadium which was ironically the last physical RL attendance of 2020 but more on that below.
Sport
Football wise, physical attending continued with a negative in the St Luke's Cup ties with a 6-1 home loss to Sandbach United before a 3-1 home win over Runcorn Town. The final group game saw hopes of reaching the final ended in a 4-2 loss to hosts Winsford United. The Academy also had a chance at success but the final two attendances of the season saw home losses to Mossley (4-1) and Ossett United (6-4).
As the physical began to come to an end in football, virtual attendances continued in RL with Super League mixed success for Wigan Warriors men's and women's teams. The men's team opened the month with a 20-10 loss to Hull FC in the Challenge Cup Quarter finals before returning to winning ways a 30-16 win over Leigh Centurions. The long awaited return to physical attending arrived as mentioned above with the visit to Salford Red Devils resulting in a 17-16 win.
The women continued their perfect start to the WSL season with a 38-0 win over Bradford Bulls Women and 68-10 victory over Huddersfield Giants Women. However, the success sandwiched an exit from the Challenge Cup in a 30-24 defeat to a newly built York City Knights Ladies. A new addition to the year's attendances was at Scholarship level with a virtual 22-20 loss to Huddersfield Giants U16s.
Away from the attending, the month was a perfect one for Liverpool with five wins which secured third and of course a Champions League spot. The joy began with a 2-0 win over Southampton followed by a trilogy of away wins at Manchester United (4-2), West Brom (2-1) and Burnley (3-0) before rounding off the season with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace.
Life
The Countdown Weights reached 116/117/118 per round as the month ended with the next milestone of 350,000 lifts in sight and totals of 1700 becoming more regular.
Updating on the friends front, more exits of short-term ones but also new connections which have grown wonderfully with my long-term friend still sticking with me ahead of the 2 year Friendiversary in June.
Gaming
The gaming boost continued with the domination lessening due to the sporting increase but still posting a good haul for the month of 200 unlocks and as always more details can be seen in the Xbox Achievement Adventure May Summary.
As the month has seen a mix of home and being out and about, highlights below are boosted by some adventures.
